Title: Advice needed
Post by: Carl Gordon on 18, March, 2014 - 09:52:46
Hi all, I took my c5 out last weekend and when I cane to pedaling it, it seemed to be slipping, kind of like there was some teeth missing on the crank, but that's all fine.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks

Check the chain for seized links they should each move up and down freely .If seized try spraying some wd40 on if that doesn t work try easing the links with a chain splitter.

Hi you may find that the chain has streched and the tensioner is no longer doing it job ....bye Chas
